"The kind of hope I often think about I understand above all as a state of mind, not a state of the world. Either we have hope within us or we don’t; it is a dimension of the soul; it’s not essentially dependent on some particular observation of the world or estimate of the situation. Hope is no prognostication. It is an orientation of the spirit, an orientation of the heart; it transcends the work that is immediately experienced, and is anchored somewhere beyond its horizons."

Our seminars, organized over the course of a year, consist of eight+ leaders of global NGOs and nonprofits, foundations and related organizations. The program is characterized by rich conversation, specific skill development and real-time problem solving.
